1.Research Question: What is the effect on backing soda and vinegar if we add to different liquids?



Notes:
I've had these two boxes as staples in my baking supplies forever as do most of homes. We follow the instructions to use one or the other (or both) in our recipes but do we know why?




I knew that baking soda makes great volcanoes when mixed with vinegar but why do some recipes use baking soda and some baking powder?



I read that the same ingredient, sodium bicarbonate, is in both but there is something more in baking powder. I did some experiments (as all ex-chemistry students like to do — or is it just me)?

Hypothesis:The more you add Baking-Soda and Vinegar the more it goes up.

Materials:
  • 3 normal water bottles
  • 1 piece of paper
  • baking powder or baking soda and vinegar
  • A clear, tall container—I used a 1 quart Mason jar
  • 3 cups of water<
    1/4 to 1/3 cup of baking soda
  • 1/8 cup of unpopped popcorn kernels
  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup of white vinegar

Instructions:

Mix baking soda and water in the clear container
  1. Add corn kernels
  2. in vinegar (over or near a sink! It may foam over the top)—it may need a little stir
  3. If you do not have a 1 quart container, try halving fun.888888
